Our group has been part of the Valencia Public Library Book Group for over twelve years. We love reading! We read and discuss contemporary literature, classics, biographies and non-fiction. These meetings result in intellectually stimulating conversation and great friendships. We are setting up this Meetup because we want to expand our reading group to include additional cultural activities such as movies, museums, theatre, and other fun events. These activities may relate to the books we are re …

This is a group for FUN women in their 30's & 40's who like to read and need to get out on the town every now and then. We'll pick a book to read and then meet every other month or so. This is a loose book club! We can discuss the book or just socialize when we gather. Reading the book simply gives us something to break the ice and meetings give us an excuse to get out of the house. If you are interested in a serious, cerebral discussion about the book choice, this is NOT the club for you! If yo …

Greetings movie and book lovers! This bookclub is for people who are interested in joining a bookclub and reading and discussing books that will be made into new release movies.

After the show, we'll discuss the book and the movie at a coffee shop or restaurant. If you haven't finished the book, show up anyway! You'll be able to contribute to the conversation because you've just …

Well I think the group name does most of the describing, but the goal here is for people relatively the same age, to pick great books, meet up once a month and discuss them. I want to create a casual and fun atmosphere so that like-minded people can get together, meet people out of their circles, and have the intellectual stimulation that's void from so many of the encounters I've had with people out here in LA. We'll pick from a range of books, and meet wherever the group decides. Ideally, we'd …

The Tasty Book Club pairs good books with good food. We read a variety of genres: silly books, smart books, memoirs, literary fiction and, yes, we even once read a book about werewolves. We pair the book with food or countries that appear in the book. If a book takes place in Greece, we eat Greek food. If we read a book that takes place in the American South, we go for BBQ. And so on. We aim for diversity among our book choices. Everyone is welcome to suggest books, but preference is given to b …

A book club is a great way to meet new people and share opinions.

If you have a book you would love to read/discuss then suggest a time and day for the meeting. Don't be shy, others will join you.  I will try to help with the organizing end, …

Pick a Genre, any Genre! This is a club for all book lovers who love all kinds of books. Why limit yourself to a vanilla selection of reading when there's 31 flavors out there? Non-fiction, mystery and suspense, realistic fiction, historical fiction, science fiction and fantasy, myths, poetry. If it's a good book it should be read. Also, why do we always have to go over the hill to meet like minded folk? Lets hook up and read, and discuss, and analyze, and give opinions and agree to disagree. I' …

We all could get caught in the cycle of everyday life and lose focus on our purpose. Whether you are tip-toeing or making giant leaps towards your dreams and/or goals, let’s get together and read about ways to stay focused and progressive. Hopefully, our discussions will encourage, motivate, and support one another on our journeys. Let’s move forward with our dreams, pr …

A food club for ladies who like to discuss books!

This meetup is for women of all ages who live in or around the West Hollywood area.

The Book Club will take place once a month at a Cafe or Restaurant. The social aspect of the group includes anything from exploring LA, coffee, hiking, small bars, movies, bowling, dining in, dining out, museums, spas, book signings and any thing else that sparks your …

Valley Girls Tuesday Night Book Club is about enjoyable reading for women who want to experience good books--period.  Doesn't matter the author, genre or medium.  In fact, I would encourage you to try different media when reading.  Try a book on CD/tape every once and a while--as long as it's unabridged.  Makes those car rides go a lot faster!  I'm not a slave to having the author be a woman or it necessarily even about being 'women's issues' (whatever those are) but would like to pick interesti …

This meetup has been more popular than I anticipated and many of the events have waiting lists.  So, I decided to close the group to new members. If you wish to join a book club you can join my other book group at http://www.meetup.com/Thousand-Oaks-Book-Club/
